Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 216 Laura’s reminder

"I guess you have your own purpose in choosing to join the Witch Cult again, right?"

Laura didn't seem to care, which made Angel feel strange. This person was not as afraid and disgusted with the Witch Cult as shown before?
Could it be that while she was pretending to be escaping from the Witch Cult, she was actually still working for them?

After exchanging pleasantries, Angel performed a divination for her as usual. The information Laura handed over this time belonged to a young viscount. He inherited his father's title, territory and industry when he was young. He was in Backlund's social circle. Very popular.

She looked at the Viscount's name and was surprised to find that it was the organizer of the salon she and Servilia attended last week, Viscount Gray Lint.

Being targeted by two "happy witches" one after another, is there really something special about him?
Suppressing his doubts, Angel used the pendulum method to perform divination. Soon, the counterclockwise rotating citrine indicated that there was no possibility for him and Ms. Laura.

"Maybe you should change your goals."

She snickered and pushed Viscount Graylingt's information back to Laura, who took it without feeling frustrated and seemed to be really thinking about Angel's suggestion.

"By the way, Ms. Laura, since you are also an extraordinary person, why don't you perform divination for yourself?"

She had this question after she met Laura last time and confirmed that she was the "Happy Witch". As a follow-up sequence of witches, the Happy Witch should be more proficient in mirror divination and be proficient in other types of divination. , there is absolutely no need to ask a witch like myself for help.

"You should know that divination requires communication with the spirit world," Laura said leisurely. Seeing Angel nodded, she continued, "I haven't done divination for a long time, especially the magic mirror divination. Once I pass the mirror, By communicating with the spirit world, it is very likely that someone will sense me and confirm my location."

"Who did you mess with?"

Angel asked curiously.

It sounds like he is a very powerful person. He may have reached a high level and can directly search for Laura's whereabouts through the spiritual world.

"An old immortal guy, huh, maybe that guy has discovered me a long time ago, and now he is just watching how I struggle in Backlund..."

Laura's voice lost its usual gentleness and melodiousness, and took on a hint of gloom, but then her expression became sunny again, and the charm she activated even made Angel dare not look directly at her.

"Let's not mention this. I just passed by to relax, not to talk about such trivial matters."

"Let's change the topic." Seeing that Laura was unwilling to mention this matter, Angel asked another question, "The Mr. O'Neill who came to perform divination on Saturday is the one whose daughter was kidnapped. Did you introduce me?"

"Who? Oh, it's him..." Laura even thought about it for a moment before remembering the poor gentleman, "I just found out about it while chatting with others. I can't use divination, so I mentioned you, I suggested that he come over and give it a try."

"What about his daughter? Has she been found?"

"I don't know about this, but he did go to the 'Brave Bar'. The information dealer there knew a few people from the Rose School of Thought and was able to contact a gathering of Beyonders. I think he should be able to get help."

Rose School?It seemed to be a secret organization that existed at the beginning of this era. It was famous for its bloody sacrificial methods. It originally only developed in the Southern Continent. However, after the Southern Continent was colonized, it was attacked by the Zhengshen Sect. Although its strength was weakened, it also used this spread to the northern continent.

"But with your attitude, it seems that the purpose of introducing him here was not to help Mr. O'Neil. You can hardly even remember him?"

Angel frowned and asked.

"My purpose? I just gave you a small test. It seems that you did well."

"Test? What you do is similar to what the Witch Cult does..." Angel sighed, "Then did I pass my 'test'?"

Laura smiled sweetly, picked up the wide-brimmed hat on the table, and put it on her head, hiding her black hair and face.

"That remains to be seen. Well, it's time for me to leave. You know, the beautiful ladies in Backlund are always busy... Oh, by the way," she seemed to think of something again and stopped when she walked to the door. Standing down, he turned around and said, "A little news for you. Backlund seems to have another group of people investigating you. They are not the guys from the Witch Sect, but some bounty hunters and detectives."

"They are looking for a woman who came to Backlund from Tingen City. She is an Extraordinary of the 'Assassin' path. She is over 1 meters tall. As soon as I saw this information, you were the first person I thought of."

Someone is looking for me?
When Angel heard the information described by Laura, he immediately thought of the bounty hunter who had contacted her at Mr. A's gathering and was later identified as Hugh Dilcha. She also asked her to find him Such a woman, she even laughed at the time and said that no one could find this information...

Now after being reminded by Laura, Angel realized that he very much matched the description of the information.

Who would have thought that the first missing person commission received in Backlund would be for him?In this way of thinking, she simply failed to connect the information with herself.

It just so happened that I needed to go to Servilia's house this evening to receive this week's mission information and ask for intelligence. Maybe I could meet Xio who was looking for me at the viscount's salon soon.

It seems it's time to investigate this bounty hunter, at least to know who is issuing the commission...

————On the outskirts of Queens, in Audrey Hall’s private estate.

Audrey was leading her golden retriever dog, led by the housekeeper in charge of the manor, to the storage room where large goods were stored.

"Miss, the goods transferred from Enmatt Port to Pulitzer Port arrived in a hurry early this morning. They are all placed in this room. Please take a look."

Leaving the maid outside the door, she took Susie into the storage room and half-jokingly said to her dog:
"Susie, these are all gifts for you."

"Wow?"

Susie would only make such a sound when there were outsiders, but Audrey could still hear a hint of doubt.

Approaching the huge storage room, Audrey saw the gift that her brother Alfred had found for her from East Balam:

It was a huge lizard that was three meters long, and its skin showed different colors as the light changed. Even if it had lost its breath and was lying lifelessly on the ground, it was still as high as Audrey's knees.

And there are two of them!
"Wow?"

Susie made a confused sound again and tilted her head to look at her master.

The latter also looked puzzled, looking at Susie and then at the butler standing by.

What she wanted was the complete pituitary gland of the Colorful Lizard, and she had also received one from the Hanged Man. It was an extraordinary material that was only the size of a palm and constantly changed its surface color.

In her mind, she had never established a connection between the "extraordinary material" and the "colorful lizard itself", so much so that she almost lost her cool in front of this animal that was larger than her.

Fortunately, she had excellent qualities in handling the audience. She quickly controlled her expression, politely asked the housekeeper to wait outside the door, and then closed the door.

"Huh, I didn't expect my brother to actually send back a whole lizard dragon. Well, two whole ones..."

She looked at Susie at her feet.

"Susie, this is a gift for you. Two colorful lizards. The pituitary gland of one is the main ingredient of the potion, and the other one can be replaced with other main ingredients. Maybe in a few days, you can Can be promoted to Sequence 8."

"But," a smile appeared on Audrey's lips, making Susie tilt her head back and look a little scared, "You have to help me complete one thing, and then I will help you exchange materials and prepare the potion."

"Well, tomorrow afternoon Viscount Gralint will have another salon. He invited me as usual, and I will attend as promised. Your task is to find Miss Irene from last week and write down her appearance in detail. , even if you use your claws, try to draw her out as much as possible!"

"Wow..."

Susie shrank her neck and whimpered, unable to even speak the Loen language she had recently mastered.

----

"Madam went to the North District to attend a dinner party. She may not come back until late at night. She asked me to give you this letter."

The butler, who was wearing a tuxedo and his hair was meticulously styled, said, handing an envelope to Angel.

In front of the butler, she opened the envelope and took out the letter inside. Not surprisingly, she saw the instructions to attend the Viscount Gralint's salon tomorrow.

But the last sentence made her confused.

"You want me to stop wearing the original dress and put on a new one?" she repeated to the housekeeper, "Is this really what Lady Servilia ordered?"

"Yes, she said always wearing the same outfit at the salon would make other guests think the Langdons were in financial trouble."

But I bought it for 20 pounds!
And I'm not from the Langdon family. Besides, I do have a financial crisis...

Angel was a little speechless, but he knew there was no point in arguing with the butler, so he stuffed the letter back into the envelope and left angrily.

Next time, I must ask her for reimbursement next time!

　Tomorrow is October [-]st. As a witch who stops watch, I am invited to participate in the [-]th Stop Watch Festival held by Qidian. On that day, I will stop... what?No such festival?That's okay.
